I was looking for a digital recorder to make various statements sound without needing a computer at hand, mainly for the song (I can not register with me so I am forced to move away from isolating myself) but also for the field recording.

I hesitated between the H1 and H2, but it really seemed too fragile, I opted for the H2 that is affordable in light of its performance, it takes a lot of functions more or less interesting but the real plus is the possibility of varying configurations of microphones in different contexts.

Concretely, the device has 2X2 microphones that pick up sound in front and (or) the back, it opens up a lot of opportunities, especially when it comes to recording groups, Repeat '.

I mostly use the Config 2 microphones before (taken at 90 °) for 2 microphones and singing back (taken at 120 °) to capture ambient sound, the sound quality is impeccable for the price, we hear all kinds same details regarding the acquisition of sound in nature with low noise.

Management input level is fairly intuitive, it selects Low / Mid / High depending on the volume of the sound recording is then adjusted in finesse with the + / - depending on what the readout display (backlit).

Only defect of the device, the plastic shell is pretty cheap, the cover comes with the recorder is irrelevant, so I bought a silicone case which should enable the craft to survive a fall.
